Bolivia 5150, 4400 Salta, Argentina article info abstract Article history: The May 2008 eruption of Chaitén volcano, Chile, provided a rare opportunity to measure the long-range Available online xxxx transport of volcanic emissions and characteristics of a widely-dispersed terrestrial ash deposit. Airborne ash mass, quantified using thermal infrared satellite remote sensing, ranged between 0.2 and 0.4 Tg dur- Keywords: ing the period 3–7 May 2008. A high level of spatiotemporal correspondence was observed between Volcanic ash cloud trajectories and changes in surface reflectivity, which was inferred to indicate ash deposition. Chaitén The evolution of the deposit was mapped for the first time using satellite-based observations of surface Fallout reflectivity. Satellite remote sensing The distal (>80 km) ash deposit was poorly sorted and fine grained, and mean particle size varied very Aggregation Ocean fertilisation little beyond a distance >300 km. There were three particle size subpopulations in fallout at distances >300 km which mirror those identified in fallout from the 18 May 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens, known to have a high propensity for aggregation. Discrete temporal sampling and characterisation of fall- out demonstrated contributions from specific eruptive phases. Samples collected at the time of deposi- tion were compared to bulk samples collected months after deposition and provided some evidence for winnowing. Experimentally-derived ash leachates had near-neutral pH values and charge balance which indicates minimal quantities of adsorbed acids. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analyses revealed surface enrichments in Ca, Na and Fe and the presence of coatings of mixed Ca-, Na- and Fe-rich salts on ash par- ticles prior to deposition. Low S:Cl ratios in leachates indicate that the eruption had a low S content, and high Cl:F ratios imply gas–ash interaction within a Cl-rich environment. We estimate that ash fallout had potential to scavenge 42% of total S released into the atmosphere prior to deposition. XPS analyses also revealed ash particle surfaces were strongly enriched in Fe (in contrast to the results from bulk leachate analyses), which suggests that Chaitén ash fallout over oceans had potential to influence productivity in high-nutrient, low-chlorophyl regions of the oceans. Therefore ash particle surface geochemical analysis should be applied to quantify Fe-modulated biologically-forced CO2 draw-down potential of volcanic ash fallout over oceans. Ó 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

    III.6. Southern Hub III.6.1. Hub’s Location and Area of Influence The Southern Hub’s area of influence was defined as the area located approximately between 35º and 43º S, its ends having important port facilities on the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, which accounts for its bioceanic character. This area of influence is relatively dynamic, since it also relates to the physical location of the projects included in the groups into which the Hub has been divided. The map below shows its geographic location: Map 44 - Location and Area of Influence of the Southern Hub SOUTHERN The region thus delimited comprises the provinces of Neuquén and Río Negro, and six Southern districts of the province of Buenos Aires, in Argentina, and Regions VII, VIII, IX, XIV, and X, in Chile (del Maule, Bío- Bío, Araucanía, de los Ríos, and de Los Lagos, respectively). The area of influence defined for the Southern Hub covers 502,492 km2, accounting for 14.21% of the total area of the two countries that make up the Hub.
